There are many advantages to purchasing VA foreclosure homes. While they are similar to HUD homes in a variety of ways, they also have some advantages that HUD homes do not. Homes foreclosed by the Veteran’s Administration can be sold to anyone. Not just veterans or military people. This means that the general public can purchase them. These foreclosure homes often sell for much less than similar homes on the market.
VA foreclosure homes are homes that had their mortgage loans insured by the Veteran’s Administration, but the homeowner was unable to continue making mortgage payments. Since the Veteran’s Administration guaranteed the loan, they get possession of the house after the foreclosure process is over. The VA then offers these homes for sale, first through an auction process, and then, if the home does not sell during that time period, it is simply offered for sale until it gets purchased. Buyers need the services of a realtor who is experienced in handling VA foreclosed properties.
One of the other great advantages to buying VA foreclosure homes is that often, they require only $500 earnest money payment to prove your intention that you are serious about buying a particular home. In some cases, the VA will also pay part or all of your closing costs. While they do not generally loan money, they do insure loans that require little or no money down.
VA foreclosure homes are also empty. They do not have anyone living in them, so if you buy one, you can move in as soon as you close on the house. It also means that you can view the inside anytime, without your realtor having to make an appointment. These properties are sold on an ‘as is’ basis, which means that the VA does no work to them, or any repairs that might be needed. This is something to keep in mind when looking at these properties, because if they need any renovations, you will need to do them yourself or hire someone who can do them for you.
